in second grade there was a bathroom in the classroom
which should have made it easy
but my bladder was packed with chocolate milk
and everyone kept beating me to it
lights were out while we watched a video
so in the darkness it felt safe
just to let it go
so i did
embarrassment set in as quick as the dampness
immediately i felt ashamed
after the video we were let out to the playground for recess
i stayed isolated in a corner
luckily i had no friends
so nothing was unusual about this
letting the sun shine down on the crotch of my Wranglers
desperately hoping they'd dry before anyone saw
i thought long and hard about what was wrong with me
